I know I mentioned it once, but here's my formal intro. I figured since nothing ever breaks on my Lexus I needed something to work on You know.... give the tools their first use Show them what it's like to fix something

So I bought this:
(see why a non Lexus owner previously owned the car - spot the stupidity and win ......... nothing)

 

I am not a fan of American cars exept for the Vette and Viper. Congrats

 

Nice! I'm a big fan of the L-98 tuned-port motors. Madd torque monsters for real. I used to have a 91' Trans Am WS-6 with the same motor. They make alot of stuff for the L-98 engines. Just on bolt-ons alone you'll be available to get that "seat-off the pants feeling". Happy modding

 

Factory with 348 ft. lbs. No doubt they are good in that department

My SC400 = 210 ft. lbs.

 

Well, you bought it.......congragulations. You've been talking about that red ' Vette and posting pictures of it for days now....and even doing polls on it, like the trim color.

 

Looks like he missed that section in the Owner's Manual on tire rotation . . . .

 

DING DING DING....... but the plot thickens........... They are rotatation specific tires and guess what.......... they are facing the correct way

 

HAHAHAH....I knew you were getting a Vette, but didnt want to say anything in that poll thread. Good choice, and very nice ride. So whats the details on this car man?? Year, Mileage, Manual?? How you like it so far??

 

Runs very good. Not much to tell, just a toy. As seize said, it's V-8 V/S my Lexus V-8 has 140 more ft lb of torque which is over half the Lexus torque doubled into the Vette engine........... basically it's fun to drive.

 

Car looks hot, congrats !!

 

Yes.......well-cared-for Lexuses are virtually bulletproof...but have a Toyota or Lexus technician in the service bay show you what happens to the inside of the 3.0 V6 in the Camry / ES300 / RX300 / Highlander when people don't change the oil diligently on these engines. I've seen a number of examples of it...it is not a pretty sight.

 

Beautiful car..............Congrats

 

I am starting to get the feeling this was someone elses weekend toy also.

My first experience with a vette is just sliding down my hand the metal door slot/opener? on the stingray.

 

Except the shop mounted the tires on the wrong rims.
